 | Track 31:14 [2] 4.0 mi (7:48 / mi) | |
| |
| Smith indoors. Finished with a 7:18 mile! Injury assessment: Deep bone pain in the left shin just below the knee. Unfortunately, running faster hurts more, which will make staying fit difficult. Hurts from first step to last, but doesn't seem to be made worse by running. A mistake to run through the pain? Who knows. |
